Jolla Shop: The Other Half & TOH designer kit

Jolla has introduced two new The Other Halves, and a downloadable TOH developer kit for designing the content for TOH.

See and hear them! (preview to the ring tone included)

The Other Half is an original Jolla innovation. With more than a
fresh coat of paint, each colour option packs a unique ambience with
custom tones, wallpapers and more. Your Jolla detects The Other Half and
instantly adapts the look and feel of your phone with the wireless NFC
technology.

With this kit, 3rd parties are able to

Community licence enables free developing of TOH for any 3rd party (non-commercial use). However, downloadable content (images, photos, tones, videos, apps (rpm) or other files) requires an agreement with Jolla, as downloading is always done from Jolla Store with unique NFC UID numbers. NFC tag is not required when developing TOH's without downloadable content.

NOTE: Making NFC tags requires empty tags & a possibility to save unique
UID's to the tags. NFC tags are a must for any downloadable content, and range
of UID's must be reserved from Jolla Store with an agreement between the content provider and Jolla.

As a community, we are looking forward for new DIY projects and commercial project taking advantage of this special feature of Jolla Smarphone. Jolla also wishes that some projects take place at together.jolla.com, designers and customers doing it together (DIT). At Together, there are at least 3 discussions already involved directly into the subject, probably of lot of projects joining in later. Join the group!
